The Space When you walk in the front door you will be on the main floor: Main living room (huge entertainment center w/tv) Kitchen Dining room Laundry room Wash room Back porch and backyard Basement: There are about 12 stairs with a split landing (6 then turn and 6 more) with railings. The bedroom is right at the bottom of the stairs. 1 queen size bed, desk, TV. There is an ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower. That bathroom has a second door so other guests can use the wash room without needing to go thru your bedroom. The basement also has a second living room with couches an entertainment center and the 2nd queen size bed is in there with a little curtain that could be drawn for some privacy. The bar/Pool Table room gives a nice separation between the 2 sleeping arrangements. There is a full bar, pool table, dart board, TV, card table also, a futon couch/bed The bar area doubles as kitchenette. There is a small sink, mini fridge, microwave, Keurig machine, glasses, dishes, etc.. It's like it's own apartment but when you rent out the whole house you have the entire home to yourself. There are only 2 beds, therefore only really maximum of 2 adult couples. The other sleeping area's would be a small futon and a comfy couch (not a pullout) and an air mattress. So 4 adults and 2 children would be the maximum number of guests I would recommend for optimal comfort.
